The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has enabled an SMS procedure for 2021 UTME and Direct Entry (DE) candidates to link their email addresses and receive their login passwords for the JAMB e-Facility and CAPS portals.

Procedure for 2021 UTME/DE candidates to obtain e-facility login details

Step-by-Step Guide to Get Your JAMB e-Facility Password via 55019

  1. Insert the exact SIM card (phone number) you used during your 2021 UTME/DE registration and ensure it has at least ₦50 airtime balance.
  2. Open your SMS app and type: Email [space] your-email-address [space] your-email-address
    Example: Email 1234j@gmail.com 1234j@gmail.com
  3. Send the text message to 55019.
  4. Check your email inbox (and spam folder) for an automated message from JAMB containing your e-Facility login password.

Once you have your e-Facility login details, you can print your original JAMB Result Slip, upload O'Level results, and monitor your admission on JAMB CAPS. Also prepare for your Post-UTME screening with the Mentra POST-UTME app on Android and iOS.

I sent the SMS to 55019 and it deducted N50, but I haven't received the password in my Gmail yet. What should I do?

Check the 'Spam' or 'Promotions' folder in your Gmail app first, Damilola. You can also go to the JAMB e-Facility login page (portal.jamb.gov.ng/efacility), enter your email address, and click 'Forgot Password' to trigger the reset link.
